Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ceramic packaged semiconductor device with a semiconductor element contained in a hollow package of ceramics, and more particularly to a ceramic packaged semiconductor for example device with a ceramic substrate containing/SiC as the main component and having a good adhesion to a conductor paste or soldering glass.
  • Semiconductor devices with a semiconductor element such as IC, LSI, etc. contained in a package of ceramics having an inside space and with lead conductors introduced into the package, the semiconductor element and lead conductors being connected with one another by bonding wires in the inside space of the package, are widely used, as so are resin-sealed semi- conductor devices.
  • the problem of package type semi- conductor device is a poor heat dissipation due to the use of the package. Obviously, the poor heat dissipation is a great obstacle to an attempt to make a semiconductor device with a larger capacity, a higher integration density and a smaller size. Thus, a material with a lower heat resistance is required for an insulating substrate for providing a semiconductor element in a ceramic package.
  • a material for the insulating substrate must satisfy (1) a higher electrical insulation, (2) a substantially equal coefficient of thermal expansion to that of silicon, and (3) a higher mechanical strength.
  • Sintered alumina is now used for the insulating substrate which can meet these requirements to some extent. From the standpoint of the thermal resistance, sintered alumina having a low thermal conductivity, such as 0.05 cal/sec.cm.°C, is not regarded as a preferable material for the insulating substrate for the semiconductor device, when an attempt to make the integration density higher and the capacity larger is taken into account.
  • a semiconductor element is mounted on the top of a stud of copper which extends through an insulating substrate to the exterior of a ceramic package, and a supporting plate of molybdenum is interposed between the semi- conductor element and the copper stud to serve for mitigating thermal stress which is possibly produced due to difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the semiconductor element and the stud, and further a cooling fin is mounted on and around the copper stud.
  • a SiC-based ceramic substrate having a high thermal conductivity and a high electric insulation as disclosed in Japanese Kokai (laid-open) Patent Application No. 66086/81 is light in weight and high in streangth, as compared with the now widely used oxide ceramic substrate such as an alumina-based ceramic substrate, and the coefficient of thermal expansion of such SiC-based ceramic substrate is about one-half of that of the alumina substrate, and approximates to that of silicon semiconductor elements.
  • the thermal conductivity is substantially equal to that of Al, and thus the SiC-based ceramic substrate has a good heat dissipation characteristic and is suitable as a substrate for semiconductor devices with silicon semi- conductor elements.
  • the SiC-based substrates are usually metallized with commercially available conductor pastes of a mixture of glass and metal such as Au, Ag, Cu, etc.
  • conductor pastes of a mixture of glass and metal such as Au, Ag, Cu, etc.
  • bonding of a lead frame to a substrate with a solder glass, and sealing of an alumina ceramic cap to a substrate with a solder glass are used in addition to the metalizing.
  • the SiC-based ceramic substrate is generally poor in wettability with a molten metal or a molten glass, and thus has such a problem that metallizing with a conductor paste with a high bonding strength toia substrate or bonding sith a solder glass can be hardly obtained.
  • a thick film circuit is provided on an oxide-based ceramic substrate, such as alumina-based ceramic substrate, with a thick film paste by baking, for example, by applying a conductor paste to the substrate by printing and baking the:apaste, thereby forming at least one of conductors and resistors from a mixture of a desired metal including a metal compound and glass, and further applying a glass paste onto the conductor or resistor by printing, and backing the paste, thereby overcoating the conductor or resistor however, a thick film circuit having a high bonding strength has not been formed yet on a SiC - based ceramic substrate.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an improved ceramic-packaged semiconductor device free from the drawbacks of the prior art device described above, in which heat dissipation characteristics are highly improved.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a ceramic-packaged electrical device with an insulating substrate having a circuit with a high bonding strength, particularly, a thick film circuit having a bonding strength equal to a tensile strength of a solder glass (about 2 kg/mm 2 ) and being susceptible to baking at a relatively low temperature.
  • an insulating substrate for mounting thereon a semiconductor element to be hermetically housed within a ceramic package made from non-oxide ceramic which contains a non-oxide material as the main component and for example exhibits a coefficient of thermal expansion of/ 4 x 10 /°C or less which approximates to that of silicon and a for example thermal conductivity of / not smaller than 0.2 ca/sec. cm.°C at room temperature.
  • non-oxide ceramic as the main component, it is intended to mean preferably SiC admixed with a small amount of Be or a compound thereof, Si 3 N 4 admixed with a small amount of Be or a compound thereof, or AlN admixed with a small amount of Be or a compound thereof.
  • coefficient of thermal expansion approximating to that of silicon is to mean a coefficient of thermal expansion of the insulating substrate being approximate to that of silicon semiconductor element to such a degree that when a silicon semiconductor element is bonded to the insulating substrate through an interposed bonding layer, neither destruction nor peeling occurs under a thermal stress due to a difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the silicon semiconductor element and the insulating substrate.
  • the thermal conductivity of not smaller than 0.2 cal/sec.cm.°C at room temperaturemeans means the lower limit to the range of thermal conductivity of sintered non-oxide ceramic which can be obtained with a good reproducibility whithout any adverse effect on the insulating property of higher than 10 ⁇ .cm and the coefficient of thermal expansion.
  • the insulating substrate for use in the semiconductor device of the present invention is preferably made from sintered SiC containing 0.05 to 5% by weight of at least one of Be and a compound of Be in terms of Be element on the basis of total ceramic and having a relative density of not smaller than 90% to the theoretical density, where the insulating substrate having a high termal conductivity of 0.4 cal/sec.cm.°C or more can be obtained with a good reproducibility.
  • a second aspect of the present invention is to use a substrate comprising the said non-oxide ceramic substrate as a base, a thin layer capable of reacting with glass being provided on the base and a glass layer being further provided on the thin layer. These layers improve a wettability with a conductor paste or a solder glass, and metallizing and glass bonding with a high bonding strength can be obtained.
  • the thin layer capable of reacting with glass is preferably an oxide layer or an oxidized layer.
  • a SiC-based ceramic substrate or a Si 3 N 4 -based substrate as a base a Si0 2 film formed by an oxidation treatment of the substrate is preferable.
  • an AlN-based ceramic substrate an Al 2 O 3 film formed by an oxidation treatment of the substrate is preferable.
  • a third aspect of the present invention is to use a substrate comprising the said non-oxide ceramic substrate as a base, the said thin layer capable of reacting with glass being provided on the base as a first film, and a circuit comprising a conductor mixture of glass and a conductive material provided on the first film by bonding through. reaction with the first film as a second film.
  • a semiconductor device comprises an insulating substrate formed of SiC ceramics, a semiconductor element such as IC, LSI, etc. soldered to one surface of the insulating substrate substantially at a center portion thereof by means of an interposed metal paste, a lead member, for example, lead frame, with its one end being bonded to one side of the insulating substrate by a sealing glass and with the other end portion extending outwardly from the outer peripheral portion of the one side of the insulating substrate, bonding wires, each serving to electrically connect the lead member to the semiconductor element, and a cap member of alumina which is bonded hermetically to the one side of the insulating substrate and the lead member by a solder glass to form a hermetically sealed package in cooperation with the insulating substrate, thereby encapsulating therein the semiconductor element, the one end portions of the lead member and the bonding wires.
  • the SiC ceramics constituting the insulating substrate of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment is formed of a sintered ceramic which contains 2% by weight of BeO in terms of Be element on the basis of total ceramic, the balance being SiC and incidental impurities, and which exhibits a relative density of 98% to the theoretical density.
  • This SiC ceramic characteristically exhibits specific gravity of about 3.2, resistivity of 10 13 ⁇ cm at room temperature, coefficient of thermal expansion of 4.0 x 10 -6 /°C in a range from room temperature to 900°C, thermal conductivity of Q.6 cal/sec.cm.°C at room temperature, and bending strength of about 45 kg/mm 2 at room temperature.
  • Both sealing glass and solder glass contain 60 to 75% by weight of PbO, 5 to 20% by weight of ZnO, and 5 to 20% by weight of B203, or further contain not more than 15% by weight of Si0 2 and not more than 5% by weight of Al 2 0 3 and have a coefficient of thermal expansion of 5 - 10 x 10 -6 /°C at room temperature.
  • sealing and solder glass composition are given below in % by weight:
  • the lead member is made of ferni alloy or fernico alloy.
  • the high. dielectric strength attained in the semiconductor device mentioned above is due to such an arrangement that the semiconductor element is mounted on the insulating substrate made of SiC ceramic having a high insulation resistance.
  • the thermal resistance of a smaller value as compared with 21.9 W/°C-of the hitherto known semiconductor device with an insulating substrate of alumina ceramic, (in reality, the thermal resistance is decreased by about 40% according to the invention) is due to the fact that the thermal conductivity of the SiC ceramic is about ten times as high as that of alumina.
  • the most important advantage of the semi- conductor device having the structure as described above resides in that the thermal resistance is remarkably decreased. Another advantage is that no thermal stress absorber, usually made of a heavy metal such as Mo, W or the like, is necessary to interpose between the semi- conductor and the insulating substrate owing to the substantially equal coefficients of thermal expansion therebetween.
  • the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment of the present invention can realize weight reduction By about 15% or more, as compared with the semiconductor of the equivalent size using the insulating substrate of alumina ceramic.
  • significant reduction in the number of the required parts or components and the processing steps is a further advantage.
  • beryllium oxide (BeO) as a sintering aid and silicon carbide (SiC) are pulverized to an average particle size of 10 ⁇ m or less, preferably, 2 ⁇ m or less.
  • the pulverized mixture thus obtained is subjected to a hot press and sintered to form the insulating substrate of SiC ceramic.
  • Contamination of aluminum and boron must be avoided, but low content of these two elements, for example, 0.1% by weight or less each, has no problem.
  • the electric resistivity of the sintered material will undesirably become smaller than 10 7 ⁇ cm.
  • the thermal conductivity becomes smaller than 0.4 cal/ sec.cm.°C.
  • a semiconductor device having a thermal conductivity of not lower than 0.5 cal/sec.cm.°C can be obtained by sintering silicon carbide powder containing a-form SiC as the main component.
  • the sintering must be effected at a temperature of 1850°C to 2500°C, preferably 1900°C to 2300°C. At a sintering temperature lower than 1850°C, the sintered material will have a low relative density. On the other hand, sintering at a temperature higher than 2500°C will promote vigorous subiimation of silicon carbide, failing to produce a dense ceramic due to excessive sintering.
  • the upper limit of applicable load depends on the material of the hot-press die used.
  • the ordinary die is made of graphite, where it is possible to apply a load of up to about 700 kg/cm 2 .
  • the sintered material of high relative density can be obtained without applying such high load.
  • the load of 100 to 300 kg/cm 2 will be usually satisfactory.
  • Silicon carbide powder having particle sizes on the submicron-order can be formed into a sintered material of high-relative density, for example, 90% or more to the theoretical density without applying such a high load.
  • the optimal sintering time depends on the particle size of raw material powder, sintering temperature and load applied during sintering. It can be generally said that the smaller the particle size of raw material powder is, the higher the sintering temperature is, and that the higher the applicable load during sintering is, the shorter the time required for obtaining the sintered product of high relative density is.
  • SiC powder having an average particle size of 2 ⁇ m is mixed with 0.1 to 20% by weight of BeO powder having an average particle size of not smaller than 10 ⁇ m
  • the mixture thus obtained is pressed under a load of 1000 kg/cm at room temperature to prepare.
  • a molding having a density of 1.60 to 1.67 g/cm 3 (which corresponds to a relative density of 50 to 52% to the theoretical density of SiC).
  • the molding is placed in a die made of graphite and sintered according to the hot-press process under vacuum of 1 x 10 -5 to 1 x 10 -3 Torr and a load of 300 kg/cm 2 , while heating it from room temperature to 2000°C over about two hours, maintaining it at 2000°C for an hour, and then leaving it cooling by turning off the heating power source.
  • the load is released after it has been cooled below 1500°C.
  • sintered material having a high density (relative density of not smaller than 90% to the theoretical density), a high thermal conductivity (0.4 cal/sec.cm.°C or higher), a high electric resistivity (10 10 ⁇ cm or higher), and a low coefficient of thermal expansion (4 x 10 -6 /°C or less) can be obtained.
  • a semiconductor device has a cooling fin provided on the other side of insulating substrate by bonding.
  • the cooling fin is preferably made of a metal such as aluminium, and is bonded with an epoxy or polyimid resin, a solder metal or a solder glass.

  • At least the second layer can be further coated with a glass overcoat, which can also react with the first Si0 2 layer formed on the non-oxide ceramic substrate to form firm adhesion, and thus the second layer can be thoroughly protected thereby.
